I Wish
N.A.D. Lyrics

I've seen it too much
I've witnessed too many relationships in my life.

Starting with flowers just to end up with stones
Relationships often start with beautiful gestures but gradually, they turn sour.

I've been shattered all this time
I've been broken and hurt in every relationship I've been in.

I got a hug, but it turned into a strangle
Some love appears warm but it can end up being suffocating and unhealthy.

The burst broke the core inside me
The pain of a failed relationship can break one's spirit and soul.

It's a mess that leaves my soul empty
A failed relationship can leave one feeling empty and lost.

All the things I once believed in
The person has lost faith in the positive aspects of a relationship.

All the things I once found beautiful
The person no longer sees romance and love as beautiful.

Are stuck in a smoke world
The person's ideals of romance and love are out of reach and unattainable.

Now I have to face the waves
The person has to confront the harsh reality of love.

I can hear the paper rings falling
The person hears reminders of past relationships and how they have all failed.

Crumbling and there it goes flying
The memories of past relationships are fading away and becoming insignificant.

Just to become the circle
The person is stuck in a cycle of failed relationships and hurt.

That I thought would be my portal
The person thought that love would be their way out of their troubles and struggle, but it turned out to be different.

All these times
Throughout all these years.

I never doubted in the magic that comes with love
The person always believed love to be magical and transcendent.

But if I'm being honest
But in reality.

Falling for you doesn't feel really great
Loving someone is not always as great as it seems.

It's all a bunch of lies
Romantic love can often be a facade.

To make you daydream and keep your mind in the sky
Love can create a fantasy of a better reality, but it is not always a reflection of the truth.

I'm left used, confused, broken
The person feels like they have been taken advantage of and left with emotional damage.

Sadly, love will be the reason of my end
The person has lost faith and hope in love and believes it will be the cause of their ultimate demise.

The good old days
Past memories of happier times.

Fade away, just like how you left me hanging
The person feels like their good memories and time spent with their significant other are disappearing - much like how their partner left them hanging in their relationship.

Nothing changes
Despite moving on from the past, things don't necessarily improve in the present.

Except how worst I'm getting
The person feels like they are in a worse position than before.

I guess I was wrong to put faith
The person realizes in hindsight that they had put their trust in the wrong places/people.

In some places where I should have run
The person should have seen the signs and ran away early on to avoid getting hurt.

Are stuck in the stars I saw that night
The person's memories of beauty and wonder are now unattainable and distant.

That's what memories are for
Memories are all that remains of the past - the good and the bad.

And I know I shouldn't give 2 fucks
The person understands that they should not care about whether others approve of them or not.

About whether you're gonna like me or not
The person acknowledges that their partner is no longer interested in their well-being or feelings.

Cause for real, you don't give a shit
The person knows that their significant other doesn't really care about them anymore.

So I don't know why I liked the idea of it
The person is confused as to why they even entertained the idea of a failing relationship.

And I keep coming back to this fucking album
The person keeps coming back to the same album representing the darker parts of their relationship, rather than moving on.

I want to stop, I'm going out of my mind
The person wants to stop reminiscing and obsessing over past events, but they can't seem to shake off the memories.

I'm writing this song, but you still won't know shit
The person is expressing their feelings through a song, but their ex-partner won't understand or care about their message.

Like always I'll drown in silence
The person will continue to suffer in silence, as they have always done.

But I wish I could tell you
Despite everything, the person wishes that they could communicate their true feelings to their partner.
